Early Modern Controversies about the One-Sex Model
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Abstract
This essay traces the opposition to the Galenic notion of a homology between male and female genitalia (the “one-sex model”) and identifies the French physician André Dulaurens as the first outspoken opponent. After Dulaurens, the German physician Johann Peter Lotichius makes the opposition to that model more clearly an argument that may be called “feminist.”
